We’re busting at the seams with pride over our two new summer favorites—Bancroft Field Blend Rosé and Penns Woods Viognier Reserve 2015—which join another summer go-to, our Bancroft Moscato 2015. We’re pretty sure you won’t find a better lineup to cure a case of the hazy, hot and humids. Our Bancroft Field Blend Rosé is a mysterious blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon—yes, you read that correctly! That means this is our first dry rosé for the Bancroft line. A sip reveals that it’s light and refreshing, full of peach and slightly underripe strawberry flavors with a hint of citrus on the finish. If we had to pick one perfect summer wine … well, we’re partial to the other two, as well, but this is a winner! Penns Woods Viognier Reserve 2015 comes from our estate grown Viognier. Give it a try and taste a truly complex, carefully crafted and aged wine. It’s a light-to-medium bodied white with flavors of bright cantaloupe and tropical fruit kissed with a hint of minerality at the finish. Looking for a not-the-usual white wine? This is your new best friend. Our popular Bancroft Moscato 2015 is not overly sweet, but instead is a light-bodied wine with fruit-forward aromatics and full flavors of ripe juicy peach, pineapple and honeysuckle. Drink in its crisp effervescence, which makes it delightful with brunch or enjoyed as a refreshing aperitif. All Moscatos are not created equal: this is one to savor again and again.
Stop by our Tasting Room for a glass or bottle of what will surely become your new summer favorites. Did we mention they’re perfect for quaffing at one of our weekend special events?
